Meet Smaya in ChatGPT: Exterview's Hiring Agent, Now in ChatGPT

Every hiring process creates a mountain of useful signal. Job descriptions, resume screens, voice and avatar interviews, interviewer feedback and background checks all say something about who is a great fit and where the process slows down.

The problem is getting to it. That signal lives across the Exterview platform, and turning it into answers usually means clicking through screens, exporting reports and stitching things together by hand.

So today we're excited to announce that Smaya, the Exterview hiring agent, is now available as an app in ChatGPT via MCP. Connect your Exterview account, and ChatGPT becomes the interface where you talk to Smaya. Ask a question in plain English, and Smaya works across the Exterview platform to bring back a structured answer grounded in your real hiring data.

How it fits together.

Exterview is the platform. It runs your hiring workflow and holds your data: JD Intelligence, Resume Intelligence, Voice and Avatar Interviews, Human Interview Orchestration and background verification.

Smaya is the agent. It knows how to work across the Exterview platform, find the right data and take action on your behalf.

ChatGPT is the interface. It's where you talk to Smaya, explore the answer and turn it into something you can share.

You don't need to learn a new tool. You just ask.

Ask anything about your hiring.

If you already use ChatGPT for everyday work, Smaya fits right in. Try asking:

  • "Who are the top five candidates for the Senior Backend Engineer role this week?"
  • "Summarize Arya's voice interview and highlight any red flags."
  • "Where are candidates dropping off in our hiring funnel this month?"
  • "How many background verifications are still pending?"

Smaya pulls the relevant data from Exterview, and ChatGPT presents it clearly so you can ask follow-ups and get to a decision faster.

From answers to action.

Smaya's answers don't have to stay in the chat. Ask ChatGPT to turn them into:

  • "A debrief summary for tomorrow's hiring committee."
  • "A briefing note for the hiring manager before their interview with Arya."
  • "A weekly pipeline update for all open engineering roles."

You get ready-to-share output without exporting a single spreadsheet.

Secure by design.

Smaya connects to ChatGPT through MCP (the Model Context Protocol), an open standard for linking AI assistants to the tools you use. You sign in with your existing Exterview account, and Smaya only sees what your Exterview permissions already allow. Your data stays on the Exterview platform, and Smaya fetches only what's needed to answer each question.

Get started in minutes.

  1. Open ChatGPT and go to Settings → Apps.
  2. Find Exterview and click Connect.
  3. Sign in with your Exterview account as usual.

That's it. Start a new chat and say hi to Smaya.

Try Smaya in ChatGPT today.

The Exterview app for ChatGPT is available now. If you already use Exterview, connect your account today. If you're new to Exterview, this is the easiest way to see what conversational hiring looks like in practice.
